From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Albert Aalbers, one of the Dutch architects working in Bandung in the 1930s, had a unique characteristic style of the rounded facades dubbed as the 'ocean wave'. Two buildings with noticeable similar architectural style are the DENIS bank (the present-day of Bank Jabar, designed by Aalbers in 1936) at Braga Street and the Savoy Homann Hotel (renovated by Aalbers in 1939). The picture shows the 'ocean wave' ornaments of the Savoy Homann Hotel.
